3 Pin Plug

Step 1 : Remove The Old Plug

Start by releasing the centre screw to open up the plug. Turn the plug over and release the 3 screws on the terminals that hold the cables in place. Carefully pull the cables out of the terminals and discard the old plug.

Step 2 : Check The Connections

Open the new plug up by releasing the centre screw. If your new plug has a cord grip, this can be removed as well. Release the screws on the 3 terminal connections. Taking your cable, check for any damage to the sleeving. The colour coding for UK cables is – BROWN – LIVE BLUE – NUETRAL GREEN & YELLOW – EARTH Marked on the inside of the plug next to each terminal is a letter that represents these connections L = LIVE N = NUETRAL E = EARTH ALWAYS check your fuse rating against the appliance it will fitted on!

Step 3 : Rewiring The New Plug

Start by removing the fuse cartridge – this will make it easier to wire. Push the pins up a little and place the ends of the cable into the terminals, making sure to check they are in the right place. Make sure the cables are pushed all the way in and there is no bare wire showing outside of the terminal.
